Latinos and Portuguese break tradition to clash in rugby league

Date: 18/10/14

LATIN American and Portuguese Rugby League will be out to show in Sydney on Sunday that their followers idolise the names Inglis, Burgess and Thurston as much as roundball icons Messi, Ronaldo and Neymar.

Contesting the first-ever Copa Cabral, in honour of Portuguese explorer Pedro Alvares Cabral, the two emerging international rugby league sides will meet at 3pm at Woollahra Oval, Rose Bay.
